Call for the best thesis award in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology
The Cátedra Samca de Nanotecnología supports and encourages research projects in different thematic lines in the field of nanotechnology, including doctoral theses. One of its objectives is to publicise the latest advances in the field of nanotechnology through dissemination, as well as to promote the transfer of this knowledge to companies for the ultimate benefit of society.
The Campus Internacional de Excelencia Valle del Ebro, Campus Iberus, is an initiative of strategic aggregation of the universities of Zaragoza, Pública de Navarra, La Rioja and Lleida. One of its objectives is to become a space for exchange in which research and knowledge transfer are promoted.
